a family in Colorado will never again have to worry about toilet breaks on the road after designing a twin-bowl toilet car.
It took four years and three prototypes for Dave Hersch to perfect his design, inspired by a small 'Hot Wheels' toy car.
It features a 6.5hp motor capable of driving two adults at 30mph and holds six toilet rolls and a magazine rack.
Dave told Rex: "The first version was literally a toilet on top of a go cart. It didn't last past the first turn. The toilet slid off and broke into a million pieces on the road. Porcelain is very fragile I have learned.

When I first went to Japan back in the late 1970's, older trains were equipped with toilets and signs forbidding to use them when the train was in motion.
I found out why when I flushed: the content went through a little wooden fanlike device and splashed directly out on to the tracks. If you stood and viewed at the right angle, you could literally see the sh*t it the fan.
The fan, of course, was mechanically activated by the motion of the train. Once I became aware of the device, I was very careful to stand back a ways at railroad crossings and look where I was going when crossing the tracks.

My sister in law and her husband have a home along the Suwannee River and have a double seater outhouse that looks over the river.
It is a heavenly place to sit, read a little and watch the river go by while doing your business.;-)

Hint: don't use the slick pages of the catalogs. They're not very effective.
